Tyler Josef Rasch (born May 6, 1988) is an American graduate student who lives and performs in South Korea as a television personality. He was a cast member in the talk-variety shows Non-Summit, and Hot Brain: Problematic Men, and recurring cast on the reality television-travel show Where Is My Friend's Home.
Rasch was born and raised in the United States; his father was an Austrian immigrant.
He graduated from a college-preparatory high school, The Putney School in Putney, Vermont in 2006. The school sits on a 500-acre working dairy farm, with a student-lead "work program" and the belief that "education is something to be actively pursued rather than passively received." He said of the farm there, " It promotes a work ethic in the Putney School which prepares its students for the real world.”
Being the son of an immigrant and growing up in Vermont, near the Canada–US border, where a lot of people speak English and French, he was interested in other languages at a young age. He first learned French, then at college, traded out different languages every semester, adding Spanish, German, Portuguese and also studied Japanese. He felt that language is useful for learning about other cultures, and decided to focus on a language that would be very different than the U.S. culture. A close friend of his was studying Chinese, so he found a Korean book, and started to learn to write it, which he found easy, but speaking was more difficult.
